Posted in Christmas decorations, Thank goodness it's Friday
December is here and in readiness for Christmas I have today made a wreath with hydrangea heads snipped from the garden. These have been hung to dry over the last few weeks in preparation. 
Based on a metal ring padded with moss and a covering of greenery, the flowers have been wired and secured in place. 
A bit of silver ribbon and a few, silver and white small baubles, job done. 
Hung up and ready for Christmas.

In the Town where I live some lovely folk take it upon themselves to bomb the Church and bus shelter in wool.
Yes really.
Even the post box gets a woollen wrapping. 
I love that people waiting for a bus get woollen seat covers and the Christmas tree is covered in baubles and chains all of the wool variety.
This is my offering for wrap, the post box wrapped in a woollen snow scene. Sandra at https://daffodilwild.wordpress.com and Rainbow junkie are hosts of this meme. I suspect this to be right up their street, although not actually, as they both craft such clever things.
This WordPress.com site highlights our mountain garden and the seasons, seaside reflections and some travel musings.
